Ladies, do you suffer from 'BRF'? Send us photos

"Just enjoying froyo with my family. Perfectly happy," tweeted Dawn Cherie Araujo. Do you or someone you know suffer from what strangers complain is a failure to smile enough, sometimes known as "bitchy resting face"? (Photo: Twitter.com/Dawn_Cherie)

"When compared to @JennaKnepper I always have #BRF," tweets Kaylee Showers (at left, in case you can't tell). Do you also suffer from "bitchy resting face" and are often told to smile, like IndyStar's Leslie Bailey (@lesalina) and Cori Faklaris (@heycori)? Tweet your photos!

"My BRF affliction is prevalent in my work and personal life, constantly convincing others I'm rude and drawing the always horrible "smile!" from strangers," says reader Kimberly Jefferson. "Don't get me wrong, my wedding day was the happiest day of my life - but once we got the candid shots back, my BRF really hit me in the bitch face." (Photo: Provided by Kimberly Jefferson)

Not only did Kimberly Jefferson's bridal shots show clear BRF tendencies, so did shots of her BFF Emily Trimble (at right), both of whose photos show them "seemingly hating on each other all day and night." (Photo: Provided by Kimberly Jefferson)

Sabrina List of BLASTmedia, a coworker of Jefferson's, shared her own photo evidence of BRF from a seminar this year with HOBY Indiana, a youth leadership group for high school sophomores that she's been involved with for 16 years. This photo of her BRF at the event "has since been Photoshopped into multiple photos and became a meme within the organization. Great." Congratulations on becoming the Grumpy Cat of the organization, Sabrina! (Photo: Provided by Sabrina List)

Sarah Chumbley shared this "bitchy resting face" photo via Twitter (of, erm, what appears to be her friend Ashleigh). Got one to share? You can tweet @heycori or @indystar; post it on IndyStar's Facebook wall, or email heycori@indystar.com. (Photo: Twitter.com/sarahchums)

If you're a woman, chances are you've been chided by total strangers on at least a few occasions just for having an expression on your face that you'd consider, well, normal.

A recent column by IndyStar's Leslie Bailey recalls one of my favorite memes of the past few years: Bitchy Resting Face. That's the "condition" whereby you somehow always look mad or irritated, even if inside, you're feeling happy and content.

Are you a BRF sufferer who's tired of being told to smile by strangers? Send us photos of your deeply serious expressions, either to heycori@indystar.com; by tagging or tweeting @indystar or me, @heycori; or by posting them to IndyStar's Facebook wall. We may publish them!
